PRIZE STAG

I wasn't going to enter Merry Monday's challenge this week until I remembered I had the Prize Stag die - perfect! Then yesterday I received my prize from Memory Box from their last challenge - also perfect.

Die cut the stag and gilded it with HA gold glitter (no longer available from HA). Also die cut the stitched holly leaves. Stamped the sentiment in gold glitter first on the PTI gold foil striped paper. Then arranged the stag and leaves, added some red sequins for holly berries and done.

Gorgeous card Betty! Your gilded stag is awesome ... especially paired with the holly sprigs. And love everything on that beautiful gold striped paper. Thanks so much for playing along at Happy Little Stampers.

You lucky girl to have such a GORGEOUS die...I love, love, love your gilding on the stag, and the stitched holly is the perfect touch, Betty! Love the horizontal gold stripes in the background, too...so striking!

Hi Betty, I'm answering your question from my blog today, as I have sent an e-mail and I'm not sure if the address is correct? Let me know if you get it on that e-mail and I can then add you to my address book, but just in case, here is the answer. The Sparkle Medium I used was, Diamond, I also have Gold and just last night I ordered a few more colours . . . I’m hooked, pictures can’t do them justice! It is just like using embossing paste, only like a gel instead of a cream/paste consistency, but just as easy, you use it in exactly the same way, put your card down, stencil on top, spread it like icing/frosting and scrape excess back into jar. Here is a link to the website, they have two videos on the page I’ve linked to showing how it is used. Let me know how you get on, but be careful . . . it’s addictive . . . I now want every colour Winking smile
